Coverage[]

Total Drama Island Do-Over[]

Sam arrived with his video game, constantly playing and being mesmerized by it. He stared Cameron down when Cameron claimed to never have played a video game before. In Not So Happy Campers Part 2, Sam leaves his Game Guy with B before he jumps off a cliff into some water. Later, B reveals that he forgot to take the game out of his coat and that it got soaked. Sam is devastated and slips into Game withdrawal. Sam starts hallucinating that Zoey is a video game character during the second half of the challenge when she comforts him. In The Big Sleep, Sam's problem gets worse, forcing his team, the Killer Bass to vote him off, which he gladly accepts. In the finale, Sam roots for Zoey.

In the TDIDO special, Sam tags along with Eva and Will. He gets caught in his team's own trap and is unable to make it in time to be drafted into Total Drama Action Do Over.

Total Drama World Tour Do Over[]

Sam was placed on Team Athens with Dj, Nathaniel, Charlotte, Beth, Gwen, and Shin. He had a crush on Mel, who quickly turned him down for Justin, whom she ended up using as a pawn later on. Sam was mistreated by Shin who didn't want to hear him out when he took over the challenge in Super Happy Crazy Fun Time Japan. Sam ultimately was eliminated later on for being useless, thanks to the push from Duncan to his team in Slap Slap Revolution, whereas he also lost his video game. In the finale, he rooted for Beth.
